  • Patent number: 12277191
    Abstract: Data processing systems and methods, according to various embodiments, are adapted for determining a categorization for each tracking tool that executes on a particular webpage based on a variety of criteria, such as the purpose of the tracking tool and its source script. The system may compare the characteristics of tracking tools on a webpage to a database of known tracking tools to determine the appropriate categorization. When a user visits the webpage, the system analyzes these categories and determines whether the tracking tool should be permitted to run based on the categories and/or other criteria, such as whether the user has consented to the use of that type of tracking tool.

  • Patent number: 12278886
    Abstract: A hybrid receiver circuit included in a computer system may include both an analog and an ADC-based receiver circuit. A front-end circuit generates different equalized signals based on received signals that encode a serial data stream that includes multiple data symbols. Depending on a baud rate of the serial data stream, either the digital receive circuit or the analog receiver circuit is activated to provide the desired performance and power consumption over the range of possible baud rates. The ADC-based receiver circuit may include multiple analog-to-digital converter circuits with different resolutions that can be selected for different baud rates.

  • Publication number: 20250118774
    Abstract: A cylindrical reactor for a flow battery includes a solid anode body with through-holes through which hollow membrane tubes extend. The hollow membrane tubes surround cathodic wires. A first electrolyte is pumped in from a first electrolyte tank between the cathodic wires and the hollow membrane tubes, while a second electrolyte is pumped in from a second electrolyte tank between the hollow membrane tubes and the surrounding portion of the solid anode body. Redox half reactions between the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte are thereby able to happen across the hollow membrane tubes.

  • Publication number: 20250114148
    Abstract: Disclosed biopsy markers are adapted to serve as localization markers during a surgical procedure. Adaptation includes incorporation of materials detectable under ultrasound during surgery, as well as features for co-registration with image guidance or other real-time imaging technologies during surgery. Such biopsy markers, when used as localization markers, improve patient comfort and reduce challenges in surgical coordination and surgery time. Additional disclosed biopsy markers are adapted to serve as monitoring and/or detection apparatuses. Localization of an implanted marker may be done with ultrasound technology. Ultrasound image data is analyzed to identify the implanted marker. A distance to the marker or a lesion may be determined and displayed. The determined distance may be a distance between the ultrasound probe and the marker or lesion, a distance between the marker or lesion and an incision instrument, and/or a distance between the ultrasound probe and the incision instrument.

  • Publication number: 20250114901
    Abstract: A method for chemical mechanical polishing includes rotating a polishing pad about an axis of rotation, positioning a substrate against the polishing pad, dispensing a polishing liquid onto the polishing pad, and oscillating the substrate laterally across the polishing pad. The polishing pad has a polishing-rate adjustment groove that is concentric with the axis of rotation, and a coolant, a dilutant, or both, is dispensed into the polishing-rate adjustment groove such that a polishing rate is reduced in an annular zone of the polishing pad that is positioned radially inward of the polishing-rate adjustment groove. The annular zone surrounds a central zone of the polishing pad in which a polishing rate is not substantially affected by the coolant, dilutant, or both.

  • Publication number: 20250118297
    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, computer readable media, and methods for establishing a user call on a telecommunications network, the call including a user phone number, and establishing a bidirectional communication connection with the user. Audio data is received from the user and sent to a STT service. Text data is received from the STT service, the text data representing the audio data. The AI prompt can be sent to an AI model, from which a text response is received. The text response can be parsed into one or more response statements, which are sent to a TTS service. A stream of speech data can be received from the TTS services and converted to a format suitable for the telecommunications network. A target bitrate for the converted speech can be determined, and the converted speech can be sent to the user at the target bitrate.
